Marketing, Promotion, and Social Media

Marketing is one of the most challenging undertakings for any author or publisher. Some of the most successful authors have a marketing plan/strategy before they ever publish their book—and this, in great measure, is why they see such success. An effective marketing strategy can help you, the author, identify key elements to craft into your content to specifically appeal to certain audiences.

Marketing is most certainly the responsibility of the author. No one knows your content like you do. No one will be as passionate about your content as you are.

Your responsibility is to build relationships with your readers so they want to buy your book. To do this, you will need a toolkit—and we can offer you an array of tools. These tools won't sell your book, but they will make it easier for you to connect to your reader so they buy it.
